See for yourselves. Also, read the comments below. Remember, I didn't tell this guy to say any of this stuff. This is what he learned in his church from his christian preacher.
So, Black people, what do you think? Do you want to worship the SAME false god as this man? Do you want to see if you can join the choir at his church?
Many of you might think---this is just an extreme example. Not so!
Let's play a mental exercise:
How many blacks can relate to this story---a black man starts a job at a company. He is a son of a Baptist minister raised in North Carolina. Your brother fought in Vietnam, you were in the Navy. Most of your family has served the country in one way or another. Remember---you are a christian as all of the other white people you work with. You think this is a pretty significant similarity, right?
Everyone is really polite. Things are going very well. Then one day, you see that everyone is going to lunch--all your co-workers are going with the boss. They pass right by your desk without inviting you. Actually, you try to make eye contact, but people look away. Not a big deal. Don't be so sensitive...right?
There is one guy who is very popular among everyone. He jokes around, the boss really likes him. He was in the same fraternity as your boss. He is the golden blue-eyed boy. He's really going places. Everyone is in his corner.
It's evaluation day---you get your evaluation and you are told that you don't go above and beyond but you are a good worker. The blue-eyed boy gets an amazing evaluation. Everyone pats him in the back. You find out later that he's been golfing with the boss every week and that he has been to the boss' house for dinner.
Important fact---the blue-eyed boy is an atheist.
You, black man, are the son of a Baptist minister. You are a DEVOUT Christian!
So what advantage did christianity offer to you? Did your co-workers and boss find "common ground" with you because of your religious beliefs? No. Why would they?
So what will you do? Put more money in the collection box? Pray to jesus?
